Array in PHP that communicates with JavaScript

I have this program that puts selected according to value :

<!--inicio if option = selected-->
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script><script>$(document).ready(function(){//frasequedesejolocalizar(pegaovaluedooption)varfrase="minAlarme4_analogico00",
        localizado = null;
    // loop que percorre cada uma das opções
    // e verifica se a frase da opção confere com o
    // valor de fase que está sendo procurado
    // valor de fase que está sendo procurado
    $('#Linha5 option').each(function() {
      // se localizar a frase, define o atributo selected
      if($(this).attr('value') == frase) {
        $(this).prop('selected', true);
      }
    });
});
        </script>

<!--Final if option = selected-->

But to generate these "values" I have a program that does this. Note: Unfortunately I can not post this source code and I do not actually have access to it.

But I have the following content in the "values" of the code I have access to. The "value" is thus value=\"%s\"%s>%s . Example:

printf("<option value=\"%s\"%s>%s</option>\n", $nomeScript, $extra, $descricaoScript);.

How to create an array in PHP that communicates with JavaScript?

(Previously I posted a question saying that I needed it otherwise, but as the data comes from the database I think I need the array to be in PHP to pass the values to JavaScript.)
